well the alternative would be democracy

Democracy in your worldview is the same as mob rule. In my view it is liberty and freedom. Interesting when you support powerful politicians and dictators who clearly are millionaires and billionaires to control and decide for us what we should and should not have.

It’s also interesting a guy with a boat triggers you so much😁, chances are he’s up to his eyeballs in debt.

i dont support millionaires and billionaires or dictators deciding for us.

ive heard that argument but not enough about democracy. democracy is an imperfect system but its the best one we have when faced with centralized power as the alternative.

its a microcosm for a bigger problem and i hope he is in debt he deserves it.

Every pro socialist communist country uses pure democracy to establish their dictatorships. Pure democracy is simply
Mob rule. The many tell the few what to do and if they don’t do it they drag them in the streets and beat them, Shame them, take their companies from them, or simply marginalize them to the point they can no longer do anything. Eventually everyone is marginalized, even the people who were dragging others out onto the street get dragged out into the street their selves eventually, and the power vacuum creates dictators and despots. You are just unwittingly agreeing with it.

we already have capitalist dictators so what are you defending

those countries that call themselves socialist are not actually.

if its a dictatorship then its not democracy. thats the opposite

UK and US in political turmoil. US almost a dictatorship after january 6th.

both countries engaged in corporate domination of economy and government which started with margaret thatcher and ronald reagan.

Roger waters should of left it to his little 30 second viral victory. Putting him on a hours long podcast was a mistake, he came off as very stupid naive and uninformed.
